SCHOOL NEWSLETTER PRESENTED FORTNIGHTLY

Our school newsletter is our main means of communicating with parents in bulk and is full of important information for all parents and carers in our community. As we now have several platforms of communication (Schoolzine, Class DOJO and PAM) we have decided that the school newsletter will be produced and sent out fortnightly instead of weekly. We still hope parents will support us by sending any stories of interest or successes of their children as it’s a great way to showcase talents and skills that are happening outside of the school.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION SCHOOL CLOSURE

A reminder to all parents that our whole school Religious Education Planning day is on Friday 10th June. There will be no school for students on this day as all teachers will be in team planning.

2023 FOUNDATION SIBLING ENROLMENTS INTERVIEWS

We have now emailed all of our sibling enrolment families for Foundation 2023, and provided information regarding booking enrolment interviews via the School Interviews website. We ask all parents to please check emails and ensure they have received this information, and book a time for an interview.

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact Beck or Helen at admin@stidrouin.catholic.edu.au or 5623 7222.

CHILDREN WALKING HOME VIA DROUIN REC RESERVE

We have noted that we have a lot of students who are now walking from school via the Drouin Rec Reserve gate at the end of the day.

In the interest of student safety, we will monitor all students who walk and ask them to assemble at the end of each day under the shelter before exiting as a group.

A staff member will walk the children around to the grassed area behind the signage and parked cars so they can exit through the gate behind the goals.

For parents and carers who are parking and waiting for their child to walk to their car, these children will also meet under the shelter and they will be walked to their cars with the walkers entering their car from behind.

Parents must notify their child's teacher with a class DOJO, written note or email to give permission for their child/ren to walk from this point.

We thank you for supporting us to have a child safe environment at St Ita’s.

SCHOOL CLOSURE - 11th JULY 2022

Just a reminder that the first day of Term 3, 11th July 2022 will be a school closure day, we will be undertaking student testing.  We will be contacting families in the coming weeks to advise details for booking students testing via School Interviews.  

COVID UPDATE

We are still getting cases of COVID and or Influenza at St Ita’s across all grades.

We were extremely short on teaching staff and we will continue to monitor the situation and let parents know if class splits are required.

It’s vitally important that we do our best to keep everyone safe at school and I want to thank parents for supporting us by keeping kids away from school whilst displaying symptoms.

If your child is displaying any symptoms at all, please keep them at home, RAT test them and only send them back to school when all symptoms have gone.

If children present at school with symptoms you will be contacted by admin and you will be required to collect your child.

We will continue to work together to get through this current outbreak and make sure we provide students and staff with the safest possible environment whilst at school.
